President Biden blasted the expulsion of two Tennessee lawmakers Thursday as “shocking” and “undemocratic,” saying that GOP lawmakers chose to expel lawmakers instead of participating in a discussion about gun reforms. “Last week, three more students and three school officials were gunned down in yet another tragic mass shooting in Nashville,” Biden said in a statement. “On Monday, 7,000 Tennesseans, many of them students, marched to their state capitol to call on their lawmakers to take action and keep them safe.” “Instead, state Republican lawmakers called votes today to expel three Democratic legislators who stood in solidarity with students and families and helped lift their voices,” he continued.

Getting expelled from the TN House of Representatives isn’t nearly as bad as what the J6ers are going thru. What do you call expelling 2 Democrats from the Legislature? Answer: A good start.

They were leaders of an insurrection that tried to overthrow their democratically elected state governments. At a minimum they should be up on 34 felony charges for paying off a hooker.

If Republicans can be jailed for this, then so can democrats, unless you think democrats are above the law. Are they above the law, Joe? According to Alvin Bragg, no one is above the law.

The Constitution gives the people the right to peaceably assemble and to petition the government for redress of grievances; but when you are part of the government, your job is to keep your a$$ in your seat and to VOTE on the issues, not to join the mob. If the vote doesn't go your way, you accept it and move on. The alternative is mobocracy, which will only lead to chaos. Expelling them was the right thing to do, for the same reason that you don't give in to a toddler throwing a tantrum.

Actions have consequences. They encouraged a gun control mob to invade the state capitol, screaming and threatening the State Troopers guarding the building, then took to the floor of the Tennessee House without permission and demanded that their colleagues pass gun control. The witch who joined them deserved to be expelled as well.

In columns over the years, and on countless media appearances in which I’m asked for my opinion about various California Democrats seeking higher office, I’ve consistently made the observation that California Democrats have a very tough time getting traction outside of the state because they’ve never been challenged on their positions or been held accountable by the media in any way. They don’t even need to give campaign speeches or long-form interviews because at this point they don’t need to. So, like Kamala Harris, once the rest of the country gets to see what they’re all about, they’re not fans.
Judge reverses FDA approval of abortion

A federal judge in Texas on Friday ruled to suspend the abortion drug mifepristone, which was approved by regulators 23 years ago and has now become one of the most common methods of abortion in the country. U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk ruled to suspend the FDA's approval of mifepristone. The ruling is paused for seven days so the federal government may appeal. Kacsmaryk, a Trump appointee, held a hearing on the issue on March 15 in Amarillo, Texas, where the conservative plaintiffs in the case argued the Food and Drug Administration was wrong to approve mifepristone.

Democrat state representatives switching parties and one special election over the last month gave Republicans three new supermajorities in state legislatures, bringing the total to 25 nationwide. This week, North Carolina state Rep. Trisha Cotham announced her departure from the Democrat party and effectively changed her party affiliation to the Republican Party, ultimately giving the Republicans in the Tar Heel State a veto-proof supermajority in both the House and Senate. “The party wants to villainize anyone who has free thought, free judgment, has solutions and wants to get to work to better our state,” Cotham said during a press conference announcing her decision to formally leave the Democrat party.

I recently reviewed the results of the mayoral election in Chicago, which appear to have sounded the death knell for America’s third-largest city. The buildings will remain and the people without the means to escape will still huddle in their homes (at least those who have homes), hoping to avoid being the next statistic in a crime wave that shows no signs of abating. Commerce has slowed to a crawl and its once-famous entertainment district is now too dangerous for most to risk an evening out on the town.
